Around 10,000 years ago, he roamed the areas of what became Northern Europe though he only knew them as land back then. In this time, he had great ambition to become a famed hunter and live to the ripe old age of 50. During this time, he crossed paths with ''Ulluxy'll Kwan Tae Syn'' who was the guardian of the '''Bloodstone'''. The sly Syn offered the gem to the young warrior that could give him the power of a god amongst mortals. Ulysses agreed with him given great strength and at the suggestion of Syn he returned to his tribe to share this gift but this was a trap as the Bloodstone's rays instead killed his comrades. He attempted to stop it but it was too late as it exploded sending shards scattered across the horizon with some embedded in his chest. When he awoke, his tribe were all slain with Syn having vanished and Ulysses now bearing the power of the Bloodstone that made him nearly immortal though he sought the guardian of the gem to get his revenge as all he had cared about had been killed by his scheme.

(Marvel Universe v1 #7)
Powers and abilities
The power of the gem had made him stronger, bigger and virtually immortal. Initial exposure to it gave him the strength to wrestle a mammoth to the ground. In the centuries, he had lost limbs only for them to grow back with the power of the Bloodstone. (Marvel Universe v1 #7)
Over the millennia, he had learnt to use a great many types of weapons. (Marvel Universe v1 #7)
